Hackers claim to have tracked down Amanda Todd’s tormentor

An Internet ‘hacktivist’ group has identified an individual it alleges blackmailed Amanda Todd, the B.C. teen who took her own life last week, one month after posting a YouTube video about her struggles with bullying.

In the video, the 15-year-old used flash cards to tell a heartbreaking story about online abuse and bullying that had made her life a living hell. She ended the video with a cry for help: “I have no one. I need someone. My name is Amanda Todd.”
